(UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 03rd Nov, 2016 ) PTI failed to eradicate corruption in the province. He said that Nawaz Sharif himself led from the front in the long march held for restoration of sacked judges while Imran Khan did not dare to step out from his residence after giving lockdown call of the capital.
He said that sit-in politics aimed at halting economic prosperity and development in the country. Saad said politics of Imran has created hatred and threat to democracy. He advised Imran Khan to shun politics of agitation and concentrate on KPK.
Speaking on the occasion, Minister of State for Information, Broadcasting and National Heritage Ms Marriyum Aurangzeb said that the people of Pakistan had rejected Imran Khan's politics of confrontation.
She said that PTI chairman Imran Khan in his speech at the parade ground did not say anything substantial except abusing opponents. She said despite threats of locking the capital, Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif had given instructions that maximum restraint should be shown while handling the protestors.
She said that she used to listen to speeches of Nawaz Sharif and Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto in the past, but Imran Khan had said good bye to ethics by use of abusive language against the opponents.
Marriyum Aurangzeb said that the PTI chief succeeded to gather only ten to twelve thousand people after six months efforts which was a proof of his waning popularity.
The minister said that the launch of China Pakistan Economic Corridor, economic turnaround and achievements in war on terror during past three years have baffled Imran Khan and he feared end of his political career.
She said that Nawaz Sharif has a clean track record and he has been striving for a prosperous and developed Pakistan while Imran Khan through his agitation wanted to keep Pakistan backward. She urged Imran to go to KPK and try to deliver there during the remaining one a half years term of the provincial government.
At the start she thanked Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif for reposing confidence in her by appointing her as the minister of state for Information, Broadcasting and National Heritage (IB&NH). She asked the media persons to help her in fulfillment of her duties as the minister for IB&NH.
She said that the present government led by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif believed in freedom of expression and it had the credit of the passage of the bill on safety and security of media from the Parliament. She urged the media houses and journalists to highlight the positive image of Pakistan and play role in nation building process.
